Remapping Europe showcase at Human Doc Review in Lublin

“Human development is a process of enlarging people’s choices. The most critical ones are to lead a long and healthy life, to be educated and to enjoy a decent standard of living. Additional choices include political freedom, guaranteed human rights and self respect.”

This quote from the Human Development Report is used by the HumanDOC International Documentary Film Festival, where a selection of Doc next films is screened in December.

We contiunue screening Remapping Europe remix works in partnership with many international festivals and events. Between 12 – 15 December, yet another showcase is hosted by Polish partner Homo Faber association. A selection of 10 videos from Poland, Turkey, Spain and UK will be shown at the Human Doc Review. The local edition of this festival is organized in Lublin, a city in Poland close to the border of the Ukraine. The screening will be accompained by Amnesty International’s Letter Writing Marathon.

Homo Faber is a Lublin NGO working in the field of human rights. The organisation’s main interest is the relation between an individual and the authorities. One of Homo Faber’s aims is to constructively monitor whether the authorities effectively fulfil their duties, and whether they respect human rights and freedom. The association acts on behalf of minority groups; it confronts all kinds of discrimination based on gender, race, ethnicity, nationality, skin colour, religion, language, age and sexual orientation.
